Abstract
A method and apparatus for connecting a tubular to a tubular string. An assembly for engaging, compensating and connecting a tubular is provided. The assembly comprises one or more compensating pistons, an engaging assembly for engaging a tubular and a connector for connecting the engaging assembly to the one or more compensating pistons while allowing for rotation of the tubular relative to the compensation pistons.
Claims (20)
1. A method of connecting a tubular to a tubular string in a drilling rig, comprising:
providing a compensator assembly having one or more compensator pistons;
moving the compensator assembly to a position proximate the tubular by maneuvering a traveling block;
engaging the tubular with a plurality of engaging members operatively coupled to the compensator assembly;
moving a lower end of the tubular into engagement with the tubular string which is supported by a gripping apparatus proximate a rig floor;
rotating the tubular in order to facilitate connection of the tubular to the tubular string;
compensating the engaging members during connection of the tubular to the tubular string by allowing the engaging members to axially translate with the tubular relative to the traveling block;
disengaging the tubular from the engaging members;
supporting the tubular with a main elevator operatively coupled to the traveling block; and releasing the gripping apparatus.
providing a compensator assembly having one or more compensator pistons;
moving the compensator assembly to a position proximate the tubular by maneuvering a traveling block;
engaging the tubular with a plurality of engaging members operatively coupled to the compensator assembly;
moving a lower end of the tubular into engagement with the tubular string which is supported by a gripping apparatus proximate a rig floor;
rotating the tubular in order to facilitate connection of the tubular to the tubular string;
compensating the engaging members during connection of the tubular to the tubular string by allowing the engaging members to axially translate with the tubular relative to the traveling block;
disengaging the tubular from the engaging members;
supporting the tubular with a main elevator operatively coupled to the traveling block; and releasing the gripping apparatus.
2. The method of claim 1, wherein engaging the tubular with a plurality of engaging members prevents relative movement between the engaging members and the tubular thereby allowing the engaging members to rotate with the tubular and relative to the compensator assembly.
3. The method of claim 2, wherein the rotating of the tubular comprises actuating a rotation mechanism located proximate the rig floor.
4. The method of claim 3, further comprising gripping and moving the tubular with a tubular handling system coupled to the drilling rig to the center of the wellbore prior to moving the compensator assembly to a position proximate the tubular.
5. The method of claim 1, further comprising monitoring a pressure in the one or more compensator pistons in order to prevent failure of the pistons.
6. The method of claim 5, further comprising preventing the gripping apparatus from releasing the tubular string when the pressure in the compensator pistons reaches a predetermined value.
7. The method of claim 2, further comprising actuating the engaging members with one or more pistons operatively coupled to the compensator assembly in order to engage and disengage the tubular.
8. The method of claim 7, further comprising pivoting the engaging members about a substantially horizontal axis in order to engage and disengage the tubular.
9. An apparatus for connecting a tubular to a tubular string at a wellbore, comprising:
a plurality of engaging members configured to grip and support the tubular;
one or more compensator pistons operatively coupled to a traveling member, wherein the one or more compensator pistons are configured to support the weight of the engaging members and the tubular while allowing the engaging members to move axially relative to the traveling member during connection of the tubular to the tubular string; and a swivel configured to couple the engaging members to the compensator pistons thereby allowing the plurality of engaging members to rotate relative to the one or more compensator pistons.
a plurality of engaging members configured to grip and support the tubular;
one or more compensator pistons operatively coupled to a traveling member, wherein the one or more compensator pistons are configured to support the weight of the engaging members and the tubular while allowing the engaging members to move axially relative to the traveling member during connection of the tubular to the tubular string; and a swivel configured to couple the engaging members to the compensator pistons thereby allowing the plurality of engaging members to rotate relative to the one or more compensator pistons.
10. The apparatus of claim 9, wherein at least one of the engaging members comprises an arm configured to pivot about a substantially horizontal axis from a first disengaged position to a second engaged position in which the engaging member is engaged with the tubular.
11. The apparatus of claim 10, further comprising a shear member configured to disengage the arm from the tubular in the event a predetermined load is applied to the tubular when the arm is in the engaged position.
12. The apparatus of claim 9, further comprising an interlock configured to prevent a gripping apparatus from releasing the tubular string in the event that the one or more compensator pistons become overloaded.
13. The apparatus of claim 12, further comprising a controller for monitoring the pressure in the one or more compensator pistons.
14. The apparatus of claim 9, further comprising a main elevator coupled to the traveling member adapted to support the weight of the tubular string.
15. A method of protecting one or more compensation cylinders for use at a wellbore, comprising:
monitoring a pressure in one or more compensator cylinders during tubular handling operations;
communicating the pressure to a controller;
performing an action when the pressure reaches a predetermined value, wherein the action is initiated by the controller.
monitoring a pressure in one or more compensator cylinders during tubular handling operations;
communicating the pressure to a controller;
performing an action when the pressure reaches a predetermined value, wherein the action is initiated by the controller.
16. The method of claim 15, wherein the action comprises alerting an operator.
17. The method of claim 16, wherein alerting an operator comprises a visual signal on a display of the controller.
18. The method of claim 15, wherein the action comprises stopping tubular handling operation upon the predetermined value being reached.
19. The method of claim 15, wherein the action comprises preventing a gripping apparatus located proximate the rig floor from releasing a tubular string.
20. The method of claim 19, wherein the action comprises preventing a main elevator operatively coupled to the one or more compensation cylinders from releasing a tubular.
